Re: The Default Thread

I have no idea what ron is talking about in that post up there. None. He's explaining to us what a madras shirt is, as if we didn't know. He's posted a link to a book. he showed a vampire weekend video. None of it is coherent or relevant to anything else being discussed. Which makes it a cut above his normal racist diatribes or creepy stories about fucking.

Re: The Default Thread

no amy, not 'hence the default thread'. that doesn't work. If he had set some context, some reason why he's posting that and how it all hangs together, that would be fine, even if it were germane to nothing.

Default thread does not mean "random shit no one can even understand what the fuck you are talking about".

Re: The Default Thread

This woman on NPR yesterday was saying this needs to be handled locally by the Nigerian givernment and the Nigerian people. Any outside involvement will only do damage to the Nigerian people, see Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.

edit: Also the international community can work to create some kind of safety net to deal with human trafficking of children, women, PEOPLE in between crises. Once the crisis happens, there is not much the international community can accomplish.

Re: The Default Thread

My cousin and uncle were hit by a guy (with a suspended/revoked license) who was texting and driving and crossed into incoming traffic, hitting them head on into a ditch. My cousin is out of her first surgery with a permanent rod in her right feemer, going into a second surgery for her left knee and also has a broken right arm/elbow. My uncle is still in trauma awaiting surgery for both of his broken legs, will need reconstructive surgery on left hand, and has a mangled left ear/multiple head abrasions and is still a neck brace.

My cousin is a martial artist and a trainer and works a physically demanding labor job, so she's pretty fucked for the near future and I hope she can recover/rehabilitate to a level where she can do all of those things again.
